a good starting place for teachers and parents

This book is divided into 2 sections. The first is devoted to a brief yet thorough overview of ADHD. It is particularly helpful in explaining WHY children with ADHD struggle with particular behaviors. It is very clear and informative. The second part is devoted to one page guides on dealing with particular problems areas at home or school, such as car rides, or wandering in the classroom. The front side of each page describes the characteristics a child will show in the situation, and the back side gives a list of practical strategies and suggestions to help the child be more successful in that situation. If you have been struggling with an ADHD child for a long time, you may find the suggestions too basic, but for those who are facing this struggle for the first time, it is a great starting point for your reference library.
